In this episode of Both Sides, Randall Abrahams speaks to Dr Zaid Kimmie about what meaningful accountability would look like after decades of stalled TRC-related prosecutions.
Kimmie argues that the commission process must do more than restate history. It must identify who broke the law, who gave instructions that shaped prosecutorial decisions, who followed those instructions, and why.
He also outlines the structural problem that often follows commissions: recommendations do not enforce themselves, and the NPA may be reluctant to pursue politically connected individuals unless pressured to act.
The episode closes on the human cost of delay. For many families, the original crime is now matched by a second injustice; the decision to look away when the opportunity existed to pursue justice properly. #eNCA
